Little spot in paradise
The view from the deck is mesmerising, watching the waves break at the lagoon's coral edge. And wandering down the steps to the beach for a swim and some shell therapy. The bach is spacious and has got everything you need. Perfect little holiday get-away spot for the self-sufficient traveller.

A sweet beachside bungalow on the edge of Muri Beach.
Eddie's place on Muri Beach had everything we were looking for. Great snorkeling, a sweet spacious space with all amenities, including towels and soap, coffee and tea. It was clean and close to dining and resorts, Muri Night Market, and other snorkeling spots (outside of Muri Beach). We appreciated the land line which allowed us to make local calls for taxi hires and to make inquiries about tours. Per Eddie's recommendation, we bought data for our devices for wifi, which we had no problem setting up.

Relaxing getaway
We were looking for a private relaxing getaway that was clean, comfortable and close to the beach. This property met all those 100% and was in a great location too. Highly recommended if you want to escape the hustle and bustle. Great communications and we will definitely look forward to coming back again. Can also highly recommend Marie at Recharge massages up the road about 300m.

The only thing missing are binoculars!
We loved our stay here. We came as a group of 14 to Rarotonga, and while the others opted with resorts nearby, we decided to stay here and do not regret it! While we missed out on things like free bikes, kayaks etc, we did not miss out on views, or whales! We wished we had binoculars - it's something you need to bring if you're coming during whale season. You can see them from the kitchen (and of course, the deck). There's a small convenience store across the road (1 min walk), and it's close to all the Muri Beach hot spots. Great snorkelling right outside the house, I swum with turtles! So cool! Highly recommend. There was no need for us to contact Eddie during our stay. It was a blissful 10 days unconnected to the outside world, digitally.

Great location and accomodation
Loved our stay at Torea. Eddie was a great host, the house was spacious and the perfect location with views to die for. We also loved this part of the island with places to eat, drink and snorkel all within walking distance. We will be back...

Great value beachfront
What a great beachfront property! Close enough to Muri beach and amenities for an easy stroll, but just far enough to be very peaceful. Literally out of the back ranch slider, off the deck and you're at the steps down to the sand. The backdrop is lagoon and the sound of waves breaking on the reef. Yes, it's not the poshest place you'll ever stay, but we thought great value - we've rented NZ baches that are far worse but cost considerably more. Spacious with a full lounge/dining area, well-stocked kitchen, washing machine etc, 2 decent bathrooms with one en-suite to the bedroom. You get a full house for 2 rather than being crammed into a standard resort apartment. Filtered water supply (safe drinking), chairs/recliners/table on the blissful covered deck overlooking the lagoon, even a few reef shoes, masks/snorkels etc if you forget to bring your own, though Muri is close enough to wander over and rent gear. All windows have secure mozzie nets, a huge plus. 3 other properties on the section but you really don't feel crowded and have lots of space. Great communication with Eddie, but we didn't need to contact him at all once we were there - Torea had everything. It's a 15 min walk West to Charlie's bar over the lagoon, and next door to Muri on the East - perfect positioning. A quiet resort is right next door if you want a bar etc. Easy walk down the road into Muri for shops, supplies, bars/restaurants/cafes/resorts etc. Loved it, would book again happily. Meitaki maata.
